Multiple events in the past?

I am a recent convert from windows to mac so be gentle with me! I want to record events of the past so I can use them on my ipod touch to jog my failed memory ( result of a stroke!) Is this the application to use? I have typed in the dates but there is not a year view to bring them all up and get a summary view - any ideas?Most of the events I want to "remember" are from the past of course. Can anyone suggest a way to do this or an alternative option? typically there are about 6 events a year and the years are 20 years ago.
many thanks in advance.

Someone told me this ~ "There is a reported bug that if you delete a photo then merge or otherwise organize events prior to emptying the iPhoto trash that the master is not deleted" ~ that is what I do every time I organize things so I am wondering how to get rid of this bug or repair it and how to clean up my files to reflect what I want.
Yes there is such a bug. You can recover your "missing" masters and delete them but it will cost your your projects, i.e. books, calendars, slideshows, etc. The best solution would be to restore a backup copy of the library before the deletion and joining of events occurred. However, it would not have your newer photos.
Here's how to find and cull out those masters:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
2 - select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
5 - in the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note 2: Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
This will give you a new library with the missing masters grouped in an Album titled Scavenged Photos
from which you can delete them correctly.

Search for events in the past

Is there a way to search for events in the past? If not, is there another calendar application with this feature that would be able to sync with my iPod Touch? This feature is one that I must have. I apologize if I come off as whining but my Palm calendar/address book was able to do this.
Thx

Hi helenhopelouise,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The search feature within the Calendar app should show all events, past and present. First, check to see if you are syncing All Events in your Calendar app. Tap on the Settings app on your Home Screen. Then choose Mail, Contacts Calendars. Scroll down to the Calendar section to see your options.
Next, try the "Spotlight Search" of all of the data on your iPhone to see if the calendar event you are looking for appears.
Finally, try quitting all of your open apps and restarting and/or resetting your iPhone.

Events in the past week - REST API

Hi,
How do I pull the data which gets displayed in the "Events in the Past Week" blade on Azure Preview Portal using REST APIs ?
Thanks
Vibhuti

Thanks Alex for your reply. I did look into the service management rest api.
I was looking for the following -
1. I assigned a particular role to a AZure resource group and was looking into the Azure Resource Manager REST API. However, I did not find any REST API reference which can provide me with the events like when was the role assignment object created,
when was it assigned to the Azure resource group etc.
Thanks

EventLog.EntryWritten firing for events in the past

Hello - I have a windows service that will setup a delegate for the EntryWritten event. My understanding of this event handler is that it will only fire when an entry is written to the event log. However, events from the past that are contained in that eventlog
(I'm talking events that occurred in some cases 2 years ago) that were previously written also cause the delegate to fire. For example today, 4/8/2015, I see events that occurred back in 2013 acting as though they were written today.
Is this behavior expected? It seems as thought it is a bug or possibly something I am not doing correctly in the code. Any light that can be shed on this situation would be great.
private static bool SetupListeners()
var logsConfigurationSection = ConfigurationManager.GetSection("LogsSection") as LogsConfigurationSection;
if (logsConfigurationSection == null) return false;
for (var incr = 0; incr < logsConfigurationSection.Logs.Count; incr++)
List<EventLog> el;
if (logsConfigurationSection.Logs[incr].Wildcard)
el = EventLog.GetEventLogs()
.Where(w => w.Log.ToLower().StartsWith(logsConfigurationSection.Logs[incr].Name.ToLower())).ToList();
else
el = EventLog.GetEventLogs()
.Where(w => w.Log.ToLower().Equals(logsConfigurationSection.Logs[incr].Name.ToLower())).ToList();
foreach (var eLog in el)
Log.Information("Setting up EntryWritten listener for {0}. Configuration is name {1} and wildcard {2}",
eLog.Log, logsConfigurationSection.Logs[incr].Name, logsConfigurationSection.Logs[incr].Wildcard);
eLog.EntryWritten += OnEntryWritten;
eLog.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
ListeningLogs.Add(eLog);
return true;
EDIT 1: This is C# 5.0, .NET Framework 4.5 and the service runs on Windows Server 2008 and/or Windows Server 2012 (core and full).
EDIT 2: Looks like this situation has been present for some time given this post on SO:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19137560/eventlog-entrywritten-event-handles-events-from-the-past
As a stopgap in the code, I plan to interrogate EventLogEntry.TimeWritten (converted to UTC) relative to DateTime.UtcNow with a "buffer" of 2 minutes. This is inside of OnEntryWritten (the delegate called):
if (elEntry.TimeWritten.ToUniversalTime() < DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(-_bufferMins))
return;

Hello Ryan,
I created a small demo which could make the scenario: the event mesage could be delayed:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace P20150409
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
EventLog myNewLog = new EventLog("Application", ".", "dotNET Sample App");
myNewLog.EntryWritten += new EntryWrittenEventHandler(MyOnEntryWritten);
myNewLog.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
while (true)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000);
string EventWriteTime = DateTime.Now.ToString();
Console.WriteLine("Log is written at" + EventWriteTime);
myNewLog.WriteEntry("Test message written at" + EventWriteTime + " " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId, EventLogEntryType.Information);
Console.WriteLine();
Console.ReadLine();
private static void MyOnEntryWritten(object sender, EntryWrittenEventArgs e)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(6000);
Console.WriteLine("EntryWritten event is fired at" + DateTime.Now.ToString());
Console.WriteLine("Log time is" + e.Entry.Message);
Console.WriteLine();
This is the result:
As we can see that the interval between event fired time and the current written time is bigger and bigger, so it could be that an event is fired 2 year later...And for reason, we can see that it is becuase i set the event sleep 6s whenever it
is fired. So i am wondering in your event, there is a similar feature which causes this delay.
Regards.

My iphone has calendar history for 10 years. my icloud only shows about 6-8 weeks back. how can i get icloud to show all the calendar events in the past that are on iphone?

my iphone has calendar history for 10 years. my icloud only shows about 6-8 weeks back. how can i get icloud to show all the calendar events in the past that are on iphone?

I encountered a similar problem when finally (and with much regret) I was obliged to migrate my MobileMe to iCloud last month.
Many years of iCal history vanished without trace during this automated transition by Apple and iCloud then kindly synched the resulting vacuum back to iCal on my Mac.
Fortunately, iCloud wasn’t able to decimate iCal on my other Macs because (1) they are still running Snow and (2) I had switched them off as a precaution. Good job I did.
My solution was to export my iCal data on one of those other Macs to a backup file – then I imported that backup file into my Lion-updated Mac’s iCal. That restored all the iCloud-deleted iCal data back on to my Mac and this was promptly synched automatically to my Calendar on iCloud. So now it’s all there and showing.
Perhaps you could do something similar? In the meantime, be very careful not to let iCloud’s amnesia get synched to your iPhone (and other devices).
Experience has taught me never to trust an “upgrade” until it is proven to be working correctly and always to keep in reserve another Mac with a properly-functioning system and all synching to it switched off...

How does iCal, or Calendar, order the display of multiple events for the same time?

I can't for the life of me figure out how iCal orders the display of multiple items at the same time. Does anyone have a clue? It's not alphabetical. It's not according the the order of the calendars in the left pane. Is it just random? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the focus lost eventhandling start a thread which does
the actual handling.
the new thread waits for a little time (0.1 seconds)
the click event of the button checks for a thread like the one above and tells it not to execute
This way you execute the for the lost focus event only if
the ok button isn't clicked in the same process ... not
realy good, because it kind of relies on the ordering of threads ... but maybe it still works for you?

Is it possible to show multiple events in the Events window of IMovie ?

we have recently made a video of a play, where we filmed from different angles each day over 7 nights using a selection of long and mid-shots. So we now have multiple Events ( one from each day). In order to now edit all the events into a single project it would be helpful if I could display all the events underneith each other in the Events window to make shot selection and editing easier.
Can this be done in I Movie, Thanks

In the View menu do you have, Group Events by Disk, Grou Events by Month and Show Separate Dates in Events all checked?
That should allow you the broadest way to view all your Events.

Can I set multiple events at the same time to repeat on iCal?

I know I can do this by manually selecting each one of them and setting it to repeat.
But it's a pain and it doesn't make sense not to be able to edit more than one event at the same time.
When I want to set up my weekly schedule I do it for one week and I want to be able to select all the events in that week and set all of them to repeat weekly at once.

There are editors that bring up the songs one at a time, so you can edit them in a row. Winamp works that way. iTunes does not.

ICal - I have all the events from the past decade listed for this week

My iCal calendar has every event from the last ten years listed in every day - each event is tagged 'repeat Every day' and 'end Never'. I have a non-corrupted version on my iPhone. I have tried restoring from Time machine and this works but then reverts to this confusion. I even deleted the .plist.
HELP - my Calendar is my life (and my history)

Greetings,
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
If the events remain:
Reset your Sync history: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
Then restore from your backup.
If that does not work let us know.

Calendar-notifications for events in the past

Since iOS 7, my notifications for an calendar-event in the notification center are gone, if i'm checking them to late. Is it possible to change the settings, so I can see them, until I'm going to delete them?
If not, is there an alternative calendar-app with push notifications I can use instead?

I used to be able to add an event in the past on iCal, but can't now. The event immediately deletes itself. Is anyone else having this problem?

I use my calendar to keep track of things and sometimes I like to add past events so they are on my calendar. Starting today, iCal hasn't been letting me do that and it's very frustrating!

Hi! I was having the same problem too- was entering an event from 2 months ago but it would then disappear. I tried entering several events, some of them multiple times but they kept disappearing. Finally figured it out though: go to Settings: Mail, Contacts, Calendar. Scroll to calendar, then You have the option of adjusting the sync time of your calendar. Mine was set to "1 Month" so everything older than that was disappearing. I changed it to "6 Months" and when I returned to the calendar all events I previously entered that had seemingly disappeared, magically reappeared! Even in the multiple forms I had entered them so I deleted the duplicates! Good Luck!

I tried copying a photo and pasting it in another event/group within iPhoto but the paste feature doesn't work. This wasn't an issue with both Leopard and Snow Leopard. Do you have any solutions or tips?

I bought a new MacBook Pro with OsX Lion as operating system. I use iPhoto a lot and when I tried copying a photo then pasting it to another event/group, the 'paste' feature doesn't work. This wasn't the case with Leopard and Snow Leopard where the 'paste' feature worked. What I did was to paste the photo first to the desktop before transferring it to the new event/group. I brought my Mac to the Apple store where I bought it and the technicians were themselves surprised that the 'paste' feature didn't work. Chalked it up to glitches in the Lion os. So how do we fix this? I just find it absurd that a feature that used to work in Snow Leopard has been disabled in Lion, and the user still has to undergo an additional step to make it work, when new technology is supposed to make things easier for users.
Also, hasn't anyone noticed that it takes longer for the computer to boot upon opening?

Instead of copy and paste drag the photo to the new event. Or flag it and use the add flagged photos to selected event command

Multiple events per date with only one photo each - Unwanted

I have the eyefi wireless sd card in my camera and it is setup to transmit my photos into iphoto automatically, which it does. However, the problem arises in that iphoto creates multiple events for the same date each containing only one photo. I would prefer that iphoto create individual events per date and have the multiples of that date's photos within. I thought I had the settings configured to do so as I have preferences set for autosplit events one per day but I still see events such as - July 3, 2008 - July 3, 2008 - July 3, 2008 - each with only one photo inside.
I am wondering if it is something in iphoto's settings or the way in which eyefi transmits the photos into iphoto.
Any thoughts?

I do not have a WiFi connection to my camera so can not test but am just guessing
I can think of two possibilities
- 1 - if you are taking the photos with the WiFi connected then each time you snap a photo it may be being sent which would be looked at as a new import and therefore create a new event - to stop this I believe you would have to not have a full time WiFi connection to your camera or somehow set the camera to send batched - not each one - iPhoto will take each batch into and follow the rules for making events for that batch even if you camera is sending many batches of One photo
- 2 - You have the preference for making batches set to one every two hours and there is a long time between photos - I'm guessing that #1 is more likely
